As an alternative to the (faulty) cutout you can use a diode, or several diodes. Suitable diodes are readily available out of an old lucas alternator.  Alternators from around 1975 to beyond 2000 are suitable. Either take from an old alternator or buy the diode pack as a spare part. I took three diodes out of the pack and connected them in parallel with each other, in series with the D terminal of the dynamo and connected with the battery. It works.
I'm running at 12 volts, but this should be equally suitable for 6 volts.


Here is the sort of rectifier I used, cut up to provide the diodes.
